    Lyrics:
    Hello Dan, it's Joe here
    I hope you're keeping well
    It's the 21st of December
    And now they're ringing the last bells
    If I get good behaviour
    I'll be out of here by July
    Won't you kiss my kids on Christmas Day?
    Please don't let 'em cry for me
    I guess the brothers are driving down from Queensland
    And Stella's flying in from the coast
    They say it's gonna be a hundred degrees, even more maybe
    But that won't stop the roast
    Who's gonna make the gravy now?
    I bet it won't taste the same
    Just add flour, salt, a little red wine
    And don't forget a dollop of tomato sauce
    For sweetness and that extra tang
    And give my love to Angus, and to Frank and Dolly
    Tell 'em all I'm sorry, I screwed up this time
    And look after Rita, I'll be thinking of her
    Early Christmas morning when I'm standing in line
    I hear Mary's got a new boyfriend
    I hope he can hold his own
    Do you remember the last one? What was his name again?
    Ahh, just a little too much cologne
    And Roger, you know I'm even gonna miss Roger
    'Cause there's sure as hell no one in here I want to fight
    Oh, praise the Baby Jesus, have a Merry Christmas
    I'm really gonna miss it, all the treasure and the trash
    And later in the evening, I can just imagine
    You'll put on Junior Murvin and push the tables back
    And you'll dance with Rita, I know you really like her
    Just don't hold her too close
    Oh, brother, please don't stab me in the back
    I didn't mean to say that, it's just my mind it plays up
    Multiplies each matter, turns imagination into fact
    You know I love her badly, she's the one to save me
    I'm gonna make some gravy, I'm gonna taste the fat
    Ahh, tell her that I'm sorry, yeah, I love her badly
    Tell 'em all I'm sorry, and kiss the sleepy children for me
    You know one of these days, I'll be making gravy
    I'll be making plenty, I'm gonna pay 'em all back

    I know it's weird to say but this is and will always be my favourite 'Christmas song' . I don't live in Australia anymore, and it just makes me homesick, in a good way. I think only another Aussie would understand the very aussie-ness of this song and the feelings it evokes. ..a little dollop of tomato sauce

      Yeah, the Hills hoist decorated in tinsel, the hot day that won't stop the massive roast that's still prepared and eaten and the Christmas hats that end up soaked with sweat, even the blow flies buzzing around and the high pitched mozzie in your ear at night. ( Those were the two things that made me realise I was too homesick to stay away any longer. Missing blowflies and mozzies! Nice Aussie tune Paul Kelly.

      Met Paul Kelly last year in a shopping centre. Wearing shorts and a T-shirt. I said "Heh! You look like that dude Paul Kelly". He said. "Probably because I am". I fanboyed embarrassingly before I realised that he probably wanted to be rid of me and I said goodbye. Must suck arse to be a celebrity and have everyone fawn over you but I couldn't help it.
      He was super humble and appreciateive. Fucking legend if you ask me. Not only a great singer/songwriter but pretty chill dude too. Came across to me as just a normal dude doing his shit, just like the rest of us.. No airs or graces, just a bloke doing his shopping. I'm a HUGE fan. Seen him play several times in Sydney, with and without Vicka and Linda Bull. Never disappoints.
      Oh, and don't forget Peter Bull on Keyboards. He was the musical glue that held them all together IMHO.

    Aussie came here from the other side of the world on Christmas Day for a little bit of home. Still living 'Every Fucking City'. Thanks Paul. You're a national treasure.

    Hi I love this song. Had a mate go inside & this reminds me of it. But really? I'm nearly 50 and in my day, Paul Kelly, Don Walker and the Farris brothers of INXS were the best song writers in the country. Who agrees?
